I am fed up with bigoted diatribe aimed at controlling the lifestyle of those who don’t follow in lock-step with some people’s definition of “normal”!  Be it marriage or adoption, members of the Gay and Lesbian community are citizens of the United States of America, and as such are entitled to the rights afforded every other citizen.  I am sick to death of a particular group of people attempting to shove down our throats what they judge acceptable and unacceptable!  And because the Constitution guarantees the right to free speech and opinion, I will speak up for anyone denied their Constitutional rights in these United States.  The arrogance of bigotry is unconscionable and diabolical in origin.

When prayers of thanks are being offered, one name in mainstream media stands out, HELEN THOMAS!  Thank you, God, for Helen, yet again this wee wisp of a woman stands this administration and the Washington Press Corps on their heads, she is up front and personal when revealing what was and is dreadfully wrong in Washington!  If there were more real “reporters” like Helen, America would most certainly be a better place!  Not one to be satisfied with dittoing the White House talking points, this First Lady of Journalism tells it like it is, in today’s dark tunnel of White House spin zones and propaganda supporting media disinformation, she truly is the light of truth!

Time to dust off the duct tape and plastic, then add to your stockpile some canned tuna and powdered milk---the Bush solution for keeping America safe and secure during times of crisis!!!  And some thought his was a brave bold plan, a vision for our future, the answer to a “war on terrah”!  He can’t even watch TV and eat pretzels at the same time, at 50 something going on 60, for God’s sake, he can’t even ride a bike without wrecking it.  Regular guy?  Psycho-sociopath, moronic imbecile, spoiled frat boy son of privilege would be a more apt description, and that certainly doesn’t qualify for king of the world!!!!

Even better than seeing who would vote for “Censure” during a time of war is seeing who supports this illegal preemptive war, illegal wire taps, illegal detainments, torture and abuse, all the lies and cover-ups!  Yessir we want these snakes in the grass on record, we want to know exactly who supports thwarting Democracy, the senseless death of our soldiers, the wanton killing of innocent Iraqis, we want to know who doesn’t “really care about Osama bin Laden,” yes, let them vote so the whole world will know just how incompetence and lawlessness really operate!

* * *

A vote for “Censure” is a vote for freedom and democracy!  A vote for “Censure” is a vote for truth!  If we are to regain the values this country was founded on and for, then we must recognize the moves made by Bush and this administration toward Fascism and Tyranny!  We must recognize the Unconstitutional “programs” designed to undermine our freedoms.  We must recognize the lies, the subterfuge, and the criminal actions taken to seize democracy right before our very eyes!  Support Russ Feingold’s “Censure”!  Because anything less means you are willing to accept oppression!

Try as they may, the radical Repuglicans cannot shift the blame. George Bush is George Bush’s worst enemy, he and he alone has committed the acts that weakened the presidency.  When you start with a moron, you end with a moron, and no amount of spin can change that moron!  You cannot make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear, and you cannot make a president out of a moron no matter how hard you try!

So TSA attorney Carla Martin breached an order by the court not to expose witnesses to any opening statements or trial testimony in the Moussaoui trial!  The way I see it, this is just more Bush business as usual, from the lowliest clerk right on up the line to the moron in chief, they all see themselves as above the law!  The arrogance of elitists will be the death of the Constitution!

"Card declined to be interviewed, but has publicly dismissed concerns that his schedule has sapped his energy. 'All my life I have worked kind of this schedule … I've had this kind of lifestyle of early-to-bed and early-to-rise,'" and it’s become quite obvious while it may have made you wealthy, it certainly didn’t do much for “Wise”!  When is mainstream media gonna wake up and quit making excuses for George Bush?  Blaming all George Bush’s mistakes on a tired and weary staff just won’t cut it, Bush is incapable, incompetent, and unqualified!  Fresh faces and more lies will not change the facts.  Bush and Co. have made a mess of Democracy, they’ve made a catastrophe out of preemptive wars, they’ve made the world a more dangerous place, and it’s going to take saner wiser men and/or women decades to undo the damage they’ve done to us all!
